How to resolve MSVCR80.dll dependency?

Thanks for the reply!

I am using VS 2005 and the steps mentioned above did not worked for me.

The same plugin gets loaded for Release version of InDesign, and even on the machine which does not have VS 2005.

Can any one provide me some more solutions to resolve the issue?

Hi AnupamKushwaha !

First search for "deploying" or "This application has failed to start..." in InDesign forum,
there are some posts that really helped me to find a solution

If you are using VS 2005 Express Edition

1. Try to install vcredist_x86.exe on the computer that you want the plug in to run,
I had the same problem and installing that really helped.
You can dounload vcredist_x86.exe from Microsoft

2. Another solution see the Ted post " Answer Re: Running a very simple Win32 app on a comp without VC++ 2005 Express"
from msdn formum. This really helped me.

This is so far what I know.

Try everything at your own risk.

Nice coding.

Hi Anupam,

Install the runtime package. Microsoft has an installer available for it.
